Druck Air Data Test System
The ADTS 405 is a series of reliable, high accuracy, air data test systems. The rugged, compact design has evolved as a result of Druck's continuous research and development, customer feedback and experience gained from manufacturing thousands of automatic pressure controllers. This has enabled performance, maintainability and operational simplicity to be optmized.
Features:
- High accuracy
- RVSM compliant
- Flightline and rack mountain versions
- Civil and military specifications
- Integral or remote pressure/vacuum supplies
- Fully programmable for aircraft type
- Protection for aircraft instruments
The ADTS 405 series is a proven world leader and industry standard specified by many:
- National and international civil airlines
- Military forces
- Aircraft manufacturers
- Ground support organisations
- Corporate fleet owners
The ADTS 405 is a twin-channel Ps and Pt pressure control system used for the precision calibration/verification of aircraft pitot statics, compliant with RVSM (reduced vertical separation minima) requirements.
Fully programmable for a wide range of fixed or rotary wing aircraft operating envelopes, the ADTS 405 enables vital flight instrumentation, such as altimeters, airspeed indicators, rate of climb indicators, Mach meters and air data computers to be accurately and rapidly tested. A remote control hand terminal enables the instrument to be driven from the cockpit or flight deck by a single operator.
This versatile instrument can be supplied in three formats:
- ADTS 405—Rack Mounted Unit
This is a compact, 50 cm (19 in) rack mounting unit for laboratory or workshop use. It is ideal for integration with ATE systems, or simply for use as a convenient bench top tool. Pneumatic connections are available via either the front or rear panel to suit specific applications. An optional matched pressure/vacuum supply unit (PV103R) is available as a separate rack module. - ADTS 405F—Transportable Flight Line Unit
This is a self contained portable unit with integral pressure/vacuum supplies, housed in a single military standard enclosure. It is ideal for calibration and simulation on the flightline. - ADTS 405C—Towable Cart Unit
This is a self-contained unit with both pressure/vacuum sources, mounted in a towable enclosure. It is ideal where security is paramount and provides lockable storage for associated hoses and fittings. A simplified termination plate is provided for both electrical and pneumatic connections that also allows an optional Line Switching Unit (LSU 100) to be fitted. This enables centralized control of multiple aircraft tests, which can be carried out sequentially by automatic switching of up to four Ps and Pt ports.
